Religious trauma is something that happens far more often than most
people realize. But religious trauma is trauma. In When Religion
Hurts You, Dr. Laura Anderson takes an honest look at a side of
religion that few like to talk about. Drawing from her own life and
therapy practice, she helps readers understand what religious
trauma is and isn't, and how high-control churches can be harmful
and abusive, often resulting in trauma. She shows how elements of
fundamentalist church life--such as fear of hell, purity culture,
corporal punishment, and authoritarian leaders--can cause
psychological, relational, physical, and spiritual damage. As she
explores the growing phenomenon of religious trauma, Dr. Anderson
helps readers embark on a journey of living as healing individuals
and finding a new foundation to stand on. Recognizing that healing
is a lifelong rather than a linear process, she offers markers of
healing for those coming out of painful religious experiences and
hope for finding wholeness after religious trauma.
If you have ADHD, your brain doesn't work in the same way as a
"normal" or neurotypical brain does because it's wired differently.
You and others may see this difference in circuitry as somehow
wrong or incomplete. It isn't. It does present you with significant
challenges like time management, organization skills,
forgetfulness, trouble completing tasks, mood swings, and
relationship problems. In Your Brain's Not Broken, Dr. Tamara
Rosier explains how ADHD affects every aspect of your life. You'll
finally understand why you think, feel, and act the way you do. Dr.
Rosier applies her years of coaching others to offer you the
critical practical tools that can dramatically improve your life
and relationships. Anyone with ADHD--as well as anyone who lives
with or loves someone with ADHD--will find here a compassionate,
encouraging guide to living well and with hope.
The instant New York Times Bestseller 'Dr. Marisa G. Franco's
advice is wise, concrete, and effective — and my friendships are
better for it.' Glennon Doyle, author of #1 New York Times
bestseller Untamed Moved to a new city and looking for a way to
find your people? Looking to find community since your kids have
flown the coop? Never got the knack for making friends? When was
the last time you put yourself out there? For many of us, the
answer is too long ago. Step forward psychologist and friendship
expert Dr Marisa G. Franco, who explains how the undervaluing of
friendship in our culture has led to an epidemic of loneliness and
isolation, and what we can do about it. Using the groundbreaking
framework behind attachment theory, Platonic teaches us to identify
and understand our individual style – secure, anxious or avoidant
– and recognise that how we behave in relationships is the key to
unlocking what we’re doing right (and what we could do better) in
our friendships. Rigorously researched and compassionate, this is
the ultimate guide to learning how we make and keep friends for
life. 'A timely, unique guide to approaching friendship, often the
profoundest source of connection in your life, with the love (and
self-reflection) it deserves.' Francesca Specter, author of
Alonement
Until now, we have been taught that forgiveness is good for us
and that good people forgive. Dr. Spring, a gifted therapist and
the award-winning author of "After the Affair," proposes a radical,
life-affirming alternative that lets us overcome the corrosive
effects of hate and get on with our lives--without forgiving. She
also offers a powerful and unconventional model for genuine
forgiveness--one that asks as much of the offender as it does of
us.
This bold and healing book offers step-by-step, concrete
instructions that help us make peace with others and with
ourselves, while answering such crucial questions as these: How do
I forgive someone who is unremorseful or dead? When is forgiveness
cheap? What is wrong with refusing to forgive? How can the offender
earn forgiveness? How do we forgive ourselves for hurting another
human being?
A step-by-step guide to answering your kids' toughest questions
"When people die, where do they go?" "Why is her skin darker than
mine?" "But how does the baby get in there?" Don't panic. While we
know that the first step to connecting deeply with our kids is
being able to communicate, empathize, and answer their biggest
queries, what do you do when that tricky-to-answer question comes
out of the blue? Sometimes we just don't know what to say, so we
simply change the subject or give a quick, throwaway answer-and
hope it doesn't come up again. Dr. Robyn Silverman, host of the How
to Talk to Kids About Anything Parenting Podcast, gets it. A child
development specialist and mom, she'll stick with you every step of
the way. In this book, Dr. Robyn takes you through the whole
spectrum of kids' curious questions, giving you the strategies and
scripts to prepare you for life's most challenging conversations.
That way your kids get age-appropriate information straight from
you, their trusted source, rather than from peers, the media, or
the internet. You'll learn how to develop calm, well-thought-out
answers to tricky questions on subjects including: Death Sex
Friendship Divorce Money And more! Drawing on the expertise of
dozens of well-known experts, Dr. Robyn's decades of working with
children and teens, and her personal experience as a mom, How to
Talk to Kids About Anything is a vital resource for parents who
value having honest, meaningful conversations with their kids. When
you just can't find the right words, this book will be your guide
to talking to your kids about anything as they grow from toddlers
to teens... and beyond.
When was the last time you made a new friend? For many adults, the
answer is too long ago. Loneliness is an increasing problem across
the world, with swathes of people unsure how to go about
establishing new connections outside the fertile school, college,
or university years. In this rigorously researched and
compassionate book, friendship expert Dr Marisa Franco explains how
the undervaluing of friendship in our culture has led to this
epidemic of isolation - and what we can do about it. Weaving
together neuroscience and psychology with interviews, personal
stories and tips to help readers understand why they may be
struggling to form lasting friendships, and what the benefits of
friendships are -including mental, social, and physical benefits.
This book is a must-have for anyone wondering how they can start to
facilitate new relationships.
The book Dr. Christiane Northrup promised "will change your mind
and your brain in the best possible way," A strong memory and a
healthy brain aren't as difficult to maintain as one might think.
Combining the latest neuroscience research with age-old wisdom
about resilience, mindfulness, and stress reduction, Drs. Henry
Emmons and David Alter show that vibrant aging is within reach.
Together they demonstrate how to blend the best of modern science
and Eastern holistic medicine to form a powerful drug-free program
that will maintain a youthful mind and a happy life. With more than
fifty-five years of combined experience in the fields of
neuroscience and psychiatry, Dr. Emmons and Dr. Alter have taken
their expertise and translated the fundamentals of brain science
into an easily accessible collection of the nine key lessons proven
to preserve and strengthen mental acuity. Filled with
easy-to-understand theories and practical exercises to work out
your brain, Staying Sharp provides you with "reliable information
on how to minimize cognitive decline" (The New York Times) so you
can live more joyfully, age more gracefully, and build intimacy in
your relationships, no matter what your age.
